[QUOTE="johnrw, post: 172353, member: 51716"] It must depend on the card and the GUI that it presents to you within MP setup or MP server setup. I can only talk about single user MP 0.2.3 Rec3. I use a FloppyDVT S/CI satellite card and all I had to do was [U]firstly[/U] autotune the channels for Sky TV with the satellite coax connected to the tuner card (and obviously to the Sky box as well), then [U]secondly[/U] I edited each channel by changing the input from internal card to external box, AV or S-video input and giving it the same channel number as with the Sky box (1 for TV1, 30 for Sky Sport 1, etc). This last bit helps if you want to use a Blaster to change channels. In my case I actually had to enter each channel number with a leading zero because the Sky box was not receiving the first digit (when TV1 was sent as 1 nothing happened, when Sky Sport 2 was sent as 31 the Sky box got 1). This means I set the channel numbers as 01, 02, 020, 021, 030, 031, etc, and it all works fine. One step required after the [U]second step[/U] above is to map the channels to the analogue tuner card. I can not remember if they have to remain mapped to the satellite tuner card as well. I think they do to make the guide work. I am not at home to check. [/QUOTE]
